Karnataka Home Minister Araga Jnanendra said that three people were arrested in connection with the murder of Bajrang Dal activist Harsha in Shivamogga, an incident that has caused communal tensions in the district. Jnanendra said that an investigation is on and prima facie, five people are responsible for the murder.
One does not know what should shake us more - the murder of Sameer by a violent Hindu mob or the forcible ouster of eight Muslim students from their classes by the authorities of a government college in Udupi for wearing hijab and disallowing them to speak in Urdu or use 'salam' to greet others.
